- B & O has recovered and restored some of his 1985 Beogram tour
- Only 100 are available, complete with match 8 -to -match speakers
- It is the third offer of recreated classics, but you will need deep pockets
Do you want to invest in a new high fidelity system in a more ecological way? Bang and Olufsen have covered it. Know the Beosystem 3000C, a musical system that reintroduces the Beogram 3000’s toadiscos of 1985. And by 2025, Beolab 8 contemporary stroke speakers have been recreated and combined and combined with stereo speakers in a coordinated finish of ‘craft walnut’.
And it is far from the first conscious rodeo of the planet of B & o. This is the third launch in the Recreated Classics series of Bang & Olufsen, an initiative dedicated to reliving the most emblematic products of the firm through the reaction, restoration and reengineering.
It is something that has been defending for a long time under its ‘Cradle to Cradle’ approach (read: everything that enters a product should be removable and reusable), as stated widely at the company’s Beosound sound bar, and more recently with the launch of the Beosound A1 3rd Gen.
As with the two previous classic launches of B & O, the 1996 vertical CD player that I heard a little over a year ago and the boothora 4000c of Beeogram equally initially recovered in the 1970s, this series is strictly limited; There are only 100 individually available sets available. And they will probably run out as fast as the other offers did. Oh, how would I love one!
The name of the game is (and has always been) restoration, reengineering and aesthetic reinterpretation. With Beosystem 3000C, the company explains that handmade walnut and resuscitated aluminum are here to “unite the past and present through original materials that have been preserved, cleaned, already updated future proof” by the Bang & Olufsen trust team in Struer, Denmark.
B & O Sustainability Champions and I love it, but UpcyCled does not mean cheap
If you want to buy second-hand HI-FI for a song, see the advice of our function on how to buy a quality used audio kit (written as part of the Sustainability Week 2025, a month ago), because the Bang & Olufsen Beogram 3000C does not fall into the ‘cheap and cheerful’ category.
Do not be mistaken, in addition to the rear cover of solid walnut and renewed aluminum panels, there is a new cover of dust, and everything is updated while the floating silhouette and pioneering tangential follow -up technology that caused the 1985 model to be special.
Why so expensive? Well, it is difficult to completely renew a rotating plate, possibly even more difficult than building one from scratch. Here, for example, all original aluminum components have been disarmed, are unarmed and brushed in factory 5 in Struer, where each unit is meticulously renewed by hand.
And completing the system here, you also get a set of Beolab 8 stereo speakers with matching walnut lames and pearl brightness aluminum shells.
Ready for the delicate theme of the currency then? Prepare friends: Beosystem 3000C is priced at $ 30,000 / £ 22,100 / € 26,000 (so around AU $ 4,640, before shipping and associated tasks) and is available as of today, May 27, 2025.
No one said that sustainable life would be the cheapest option …
